Barcelona are going to have to cope without top scorer Robert Lewandowski for a few weeks after the Poland international sustained a hamstring injury against Celta.
The news is a huge blow as Lewandowski is the team’s top scorer so far this season and has netted 40 goals in all competitions already in 2024-25.
Yet Hansi Flick does have options available to him and will know his team have fared extremely well on the very few occasions they’ve had to cope without Lewandowski this season.

Lewandowski has only missed three games completely for Barcelona in 2024-25: December’s La Liga clash with Real Mallorca, the Copa del Rey win over Real Betis, and the Copa clash against Valencia.
